In Episode 11 of The Republican Legacy Podcast, hosts Chris Vance and Merrill Matthews welcome back ORL Connecticut Chair Tommy Whiteley for a Week in Review discussion about the state of the Republican Party heading into the 2026 midterm elections. The panel examines whether Donald Trump’s influence over Republican voters may be weakening, the national debt surpassing $40 trillion, the GOP’s retreat from fiscal responsibility, tariffs and inflation, the looming Social Security funding crisis, turmoil inside the White House, and signs that Republicans could face a significant backlash in November.
Later, the panel is joined by veteran journalist and Fox News political analyst Juan Williams, author of New Prize for These Eyes: The Rise of America’s Second Civil Rights Movement. Williams discusses America’s progress on civil rights and the challenges that remain, the Republican Party’s historic role as the party of civil rights, the politics of division and grievance, and the rise of political extremes on both sides. The conversation also explores election integrity, education and opportunity, and whether a new generation of Republicans can build a winning movement centered on unity, patriotism, and the party’s traditional principles.

Keep up the good work hopefully we won’t become socialist or communist and we’ll all kind of work together with the Republicans and Democrats again like it used to be. Please keep going right. God bless our Troop and God bless America.
